Trees and Sweet Squirrel Card

Good morning friends

When we were visiting Arizona this Fall, I was poking around Scrapbook.com's clearance section. This cute tree die set was in there and I knew how much I'd use it. I had purchased the Lawn Fawn Portrait Tree Backdrop and love that - so this one gives me the same idea in a landscape format. The leaves partially cut so you can lift them with your finger for added dimension.

There is also a 'clothesline' that can be strung between the two trees, and a little accessory die set that my Mom gave me in my Christmas stocking! This card is going into my stash for when I need a little 'Love Note' to send out.

Note, you can find my cards from July 2011 - December 2016 on Alteredscrapbooking.blogspot.ca. I had a bunch of cards made ahead, which are already watermarked with alteredscrapbooking and I'm choosing not to re-do all those photos with a Painted Mountain Card watermark.

About Me

I have had a love affair with paper and scissors as long as I can remember. Card stock, stickers, stamps, ink, dies ... I love it all. I took up Loom Knitting in 2011 and also really enjoy knitting without needles so started a blog to share my creations with others. On a road trip in 2015, I stumbled across Zentangle and was immediately hooked. Instead of combining my Zentangle with my card posts, I have now started a blog for that as well!
I live in Alberta Canada, with my DH and 2 furry kids.
Note, I made the background for my Loom Knitting and Card blogs using papers from digital kits by Gina Cabrera at Digital Design Essentials.
